Three 18 year old superstars you are on the way to greatness. What you do depends on the type of offence you plan to run. If you plan to run an outside offence I would keep pumping the ID way up until you reach sensational. If you plan to run an inside offence then I would switch to IS right away. Do rebounding in weeks where you only have two games or when the minutes get messed up.

Yeah still not 100% sure of what style of offence I want to play, have been playing Base Offence since I came back, so something to experiment with I guess before the new season starts.

I am a big hater of Base Offense. I believe it hinders your offensive ability greatly, I've seen in countless times in League games and recently in U21 play. No matter the level of players, it always limits your scoring potential. If you want a neutral offense then push the ball would be best, despite it being faster paced.

I am not a fa either but I admit there were some high proficle players that were. Niko of the Tasmanian Eagles probably the most successful player in Australia in the early years swore by it, Robhoe of the Western Titans uses it a lot and I did read a post by one of the serious BBs, Charles or Mark that said by design base is the best offence if you have a balanced team and that every other offence is a little worse overall but makes up for that by focusing on the strengths of your team. That could have been before everyone knew how to break Look Inside.

Was just wondering if this week is a 2 game or 3 game week?

if you are out of finals then 2, generated scrimmage tonight and normal scrimmage Thursday

Thanks mate, was just working out my training.
